Default Shetland heatwave query

Apologies for not being exactly topical, but... Col posted this back in
early November:

"Absolute `highs' for each British County were published in Weather, 48,
282-291. A remarkable British `heat-wave' occurred on 6th August 1910 when
28 C
was registered in the Shetland Isles, while nowhere elsewhere in Britain
exceeded 20 C. The extraordinary weather situation responsible is described
in
Journal of Meteorology, 9(91), 211-213."

Does anyone know where a copy of this article or the journal can be
purchased or borrowed?

Dave Wheeler, in a follow up post reported experiencing foehn winds from
Norway in Fair Isle.

Karl Cooper, Orkney

Your local library may be able to get it for you more cheaply.

Cheers, Alastair.

Good idea, I'll try the inter library loan system.
